Putting 'w' or '*' in the diff makes it more complicated that it is. No need
for such complexity that new comers will not understand.

Whenever non-whitespace changes take place, MediaWiki adds a <span
class="diffchange"> element around it. This class, by default, only has text
color styling (red color), however it can also be given a background shade. For
example, look at:

http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Sandbox&diff=55911338&withCSS=MediaWiki:Gadget-diffGreenBlue.css

The diffchange part (a full stop was inserted in the middle) has a darker
background.

If MediaWiki were to output <span class="diffchange"> for whitespaces changes
as well, combined with a new css rule for background-color, this bug can be
solved.

The same was done in CodeReview on MediaWiki.org (bug 27375). See for example
the whitespace changes in r42730.

Text browsers are not supported by MediaWiki for full functionality. Basic
functionality (reading articles, browsing the wiki, searching/finding pages)
will work, but there is no active testing or compatibility part of the
MediaWiki development cycle for them:
